Nick Knowles (of DIY SOS fame) went to The Skinners' School in Tunbridge Wells - he was in the same form as my DH... our only claim to fame.

I have mentioned on this site once before (OK, several times :lol: :lol: ) that Richard Hammond used to go to my dd's school.

Well, the latest is young Jack Laugher who has just finsihed 11th in the Commonwealth Games (diving) in Delhi goes to my dd's school - cool or what!
